Last Minute Gift Guide

SLAM Style

by Konate Primus

Were you holding out on getting those presents this year because of the the horrible economy? No prob, its not to late to grab a few things for you loved ones. Its no secret that this holiday season will be a rough one, money is tight for everyone. Some of you might get the knock off version of what you really want, some of you might get part of what you desire and some of you may not gifts at all. But that is no reason for you to feel down about the season. You should take this time and appreciate all the blessings you have for example: Instead of complaining about the job you hate going to everyday be thankful you still have a job when 500,000 people were laid off in November alone. Instead of complaining about how ridiculous this Marbury-Knicks beef is be thankful they actually are winning games and working towards a bright future. You see where I’m going, it’s the times when you have nothing that make the time when you have a lil something seem like the world to you. So even if you cant get everything you want for the holidays choose carefully.

For the next couple of days I’ll be hitting you with holiday gift ideas so keep checking back and let folks know what you want!

The prefect late grabs for your video game loving brother, son, sister, daughter, husband or wife.

Available wherever games are sold.

Retail $59.99

    I know this senior that rides my bus who is always asking me to play him in mortal combat vs. DC online. He is obessed with it to the point where he has to explain every character and their role in the comic book universe. no thanks. but like you said, maybe for a little brother. grown men, can’t f*ck wit me in NBA 2k9. I’m kind of a big deal.
